Why wouldn't FLEx pull in Bible texts from Paratext?

Question

I'm working with someone who has correctly (as far as I can tell) associated his FLEx project in Paratext. But when he goes to 'Select texts' in FLEx, there's no 'Bible' genre. What could be going wrong here?

Thanks,

Answer 1

Is he picking the "Choose texts" icon in texts and words? And then he does not see "Bible" as a possible item to open  up and select  texts from?

If that is the case he should double check the association in project properties in Paratext.  It should look like this (with no red exclamation point by the FLEx project name. The option "Interlinear does not use Associated Lexical Project" is not relevant here, that determines whether the Paratext interlinearizer looks for words in FLEx or not). 

 

Comments

Yes, he's got it correctly associated in Paratext, and he is using the 'Select Texts' icon in FLEx, though no 'Bible' genre shows up.

In that case,  I would suggest your colleague submit  a problem report to Paratext (give feedback on the main menu), and also report it to the FLEx  team at *Emails are not allowed*
